Ziliujing District, located in the south of Sichuan Province, is a municipal district of Zigong City, named after the ancient salt wells that flowed from the city, and is known as the core area of the "Millennium Salt Capital". As the birthplace of Zigong's salt industry, Ziliujing District retains the former site of salt merchants in the Qing Dynasty, and the site of the Tianche (derrick) and other industrial cultural heritages, which have witnessed the glorious history of well salt mining in the BaShu region. The Zigong Dinosaur Museum in the district is one of the world's three major dinosaur site museums, treasuring a large number of complete dinosaur fossils, while the Zigong International Dinosaur Lantern Festival is a national intangible cultural heritage, known at home and abroad for its grand scale and exquisite craftsmanship. Nowadays, Ziliujing District integrates salt culture, dinosaur culture and folk culture, becoming a cultural tourism destination integrating history exploration, science popularization study and folk experience, attracting tourists from all over the world to explore the unique charm of "Salt Dragon Lantern".
